I thought the stars were bloated because of the camera sensor (pixel size) oversampling?

Try applying a ddp filter, this should reduce the stars but may dim the nebula at the same time so then adjust levels until you get the nebulosity back but don't quite resaturate the stars. Now apply a log stretch and see what you get. I use Astroart4 and the DDP filter is excellent
